"Your eyes are so huge, it pisses me off."
I was like, um, I'm sorry...

I've been told a couple times that I look like the daughter on George Lopez (Carmen?) And that it's a good thing so I say thanks. But I don't think I look like her.

And I've been told that I look like a deer in headlights because of my big, brown eyes.

And that I have cute ears.. I guess they're small but I wouldn't call them "cute".

People always tell me I have really long eyelashes! I mean I guess that is nice but it is kinda strange. I mean how do people notice that?

Oh and that I have really blue eyes and they can't possibly be real. I just say thanks because I'm not going to argue with. If they think they are fake then I will let them believe it!

I only brought water for lunch one day because I really didn't feel all that great, and this one guy who sits at my table (I have absolutely no clue why he sits there...) was like, "Why aren't you eating? Are you anorexic? You're not even fat!" I was like, "Uuuhhh, okay?"

Another time I curled my hair and I was wearing a headband to keep it out of my face, and the same guy was like, "What's up with the headbad? Were you trying to look pretty and it didn't work?" WTF, right? I was like, "Good thing I don't value your opinion, or that might have hurt my feelings." :roll:

The weirdest compliment I've ever gotten was for the way I write. Mind you, it wasn't because my writing was pretty or interesting...they liked the fact that I keep my face bent so close down to the desk (No wonder my neck hurts in school. :roll: ) & sometimes I just lay with my cheek on it. I've tried for the longest time to stop doing that but it's habit.
I also get that I have pretty eyes, soft hair, that I'm tall & I smell good but those aren't really so weird.
I guess things are going to be kind of boring now, aren't they?

Some of the weirdest compliments i get are about my ears! I'm a pretty tall girl so my ears are i guess, reallllyyy tiny. One of the comments i remember most was from my science teacher. All of a sudden she glances at my ears and says.. and i quote! "Whoa, Erin! Your ears! they are sooo..so tiny and cute! Adorable! and she held up her fingers to measure them and was awe-struck...

Yeah..i don't think that was weird at all.....

One time when I was 11 maybe 12, I went to this pool and I didnt have shoes on (duh, im not swimming with shoes. lol) anyways some lady came up and started going on about how my feet were oh-so-adorable. To this day I still wonder what she was thinking! My feet aren't really ugly or anythings, but i wouldnt call them beautiful!

Oh, and another time like last year or something somebody complimented my elbows. MY ELBOWS, for crying out loud! And i don't do good under pressure so i said, "You too." So I told some person I liked their elbows. ELBOWS! Sorry, thats just odd.

I got two: one yesterday and one today. Yesterday, the girl I sit with at lunch randomly said, "You know, you have a real monotone voice." I was like, "You know, that is kind of true." A girl in my Japanese class backed me up on that. :lol:

Today, I got a nail compliment (I was expecting another one of those sometime this year). "I like your nails." I was like, "Thanks...." I think she [the girl I sit with during history] only noticed because I painted them red. Then the same girl I mentioned before in Japanese class said, "*gasp* You're nails! They are little brighter, but they're like Sasori's hair!" I was like, "Uh, thanks." Not a fan of Naruto, but I consider that a compliment. ;)

A random guy told me the other day that I had "Winona Ryder skin". I'm super pale. I took it as a compliment, but I was a little weirded out...

Haha. Wow. I'm pretty tan, and people are always telling me I look like Kim Kardashian. I'm like, is that good?

A friend once said to me: "You're perfect." That was a pretty strange compliment. A bit later that guy proposed to me and talked about how great his children would look because I'd be the mother. Erm ... right. :? I'm not exactly that good-looking. I'm sort of average so that made me feel very uncomfortable.
